Tuesday morning about 8 O'Clock ou

Tuesday morning about 8 o'clock our
citizens were aroused by an alarm of
fire and on getting to the scene it was
found that fire had been discovered In
the southeast side of the latest addi-
tion to the Pioneer Hotel on Main
street in this village. The fire ap-
Iparatus was quickly brought into use
and we'll handled, the flames being
quickly subdued. The hotel is one of
the Oldest in the village and had the
fire gained a little more headway be-
fore being discovered it would have
been extremely difficult to have ex-
inguished it. The origin of the fire is
unknown. .-RoScomm Neaos.

'Remember the Sabbath day to
keep it holy" was the subject Of the
discourse of Rev. G. l.. Adams at the
NJ. L Church last Sunday morning.
We were reminded of the fact that
the laws providing for proper observa-
ton of the Sabbath are not enforced.
Not only are the saloons not closed on
that day but business places generally
are Kept open. our citizens and OFF,
GERS who are doing 80 much commend
able work i'm prosecuting violations of
the Fourth of July law should continue
the good work and see that the laws
preventing the desecrAtion of the Sab
bath are strictly enforced. This
would add very largely to the appear
ance and order of our village and just
as much business could be done In
the six days as are now done in seven.
We agree with the preacher, that the
day of rest would greatly benefit all
men, physically, mentally, morally
and spiritually. OgemGso Times.

President cleveland isgoing to make
a good long trip over the country this
fall. We are glad that he has de-
termined to add 10 his very scanty in
formation about the country whose
chief executive he IL. He should have
made this trip, however, year
and half ago. and thus avoid the GER
tain inference that he is swinging
round the circle" TO work up renom
ination. There is a great curiosity on
the part of the masses to see Mr..
Cleveland, which will be gratified
There are lots of democrats who imag.
in him to be of much more striking
personality than he really IL; and a
good view of the man will disabuse
their minds of the idea that he has the
figure of a middle-aged Apollo, and the
commanding front of nineteenth cen
tury Jove. They will find him a per
fectly ordinary type of the plethoric
American with nothing whatever
about him to inspire awe, command ex-
traordinary respect, or rouse the slight
est enthusiasm. Mr.. Cleveland is a
very commonplace man, with a some
what churlish and stubborn disposi-
ton. The people will see him as he
really is. Swing low, sweet chariot,

CHICAGO AGAIN.

The great convention fight has been
decided, and Chicago again captures
the prize. We are honestly sorry for
minneapolis. She made gallant fight,
and the fault is not hers that she did
not win. 1t is due entirely to the OBJ
tuSeneSS of delegates who may some
day know better. But the effort of
Minneapolis was not all in vain.
She has shown the entire country that
Western energy, even in a losing con-
test, is something not to be spoken
lightly of. She has informed every
state in the union that the Twin Cities
have grown to that point where they are
quite capable of taking care of ma
tional convention, or two of them for
that matter, and though many knew it
before. to others not so well Informed it
will be new. The spreading of such
information is certainly worth the eff
fort.
Therefore, while we cOndole with our
sister city we cannot bring ourselves to
believe that the trip of her famous dele
ton has been to no purpose. And after
everything is said it must be admitted
that Chicago is not such bad place, eX-
cept for the unwary delegate, for hold
ing a convention after all.
The Garden City should not consider,
however, that because she has had a
convention once or twice she is to have
it every time. The Northwest will be
ready to extend another invitation in
the future. She is not accustomed to
being daunted by one refusal. Better
luck next time

A Lucky Man.

One of the former army officers who
has made a fortune in the Western
country is spending some of his surplus
income in New York city. He used to
hold commission in the regular army
and was stationed at Fort Laramie,
where everybody knew him as Capt.
Bob Torrey. He never had a dollar but
his regular pay, and he never kept that
very long. He IS a jolly faced. pre-
maturely grayhaired man who had not
much thought of the future until he
fell in with some cattlemen in Wyoming
who gave him little interest in their
big ranch for the occasional care and
supervision he could exercise over it in
his military capacity. He OWNS it all
now, and unlike a good many other
cattiemen, has been very successful in
his ventures. and has money enough to
assure him very luxurious ending to
his former uncomfortable life on the
plains. He resigned from the army and
for couple of years past has been one
of the best known figures in Washing
ton social life. He is an accomplished
gentleman of easy, pleasant manners,
and is credited with an ambition to take
a hand in the big senatorial fight that
is soon to come off in Colorado.

POLO ON SKATES.
The Team From Minneapolis De-
feats the Sanity City Boys.

Polo on skates was inaugurated for
the season at the Jackson street rink
last evening, the contestants being
teams representing st. Paul and Min
neapolis, the latter winning two
straight goals. Minneapolis put out
Capt. Dick Moore, first rush: W. Heffel-
finger, goal; f. March, second rush; j.
Urquhart, cover; A. s. Heffelfinger and
A. c. Mcclellan, half-back. st. Paul'S
team comprised Capt. j. l.. Barrett, first
rush; j. S. Smith, second rush; f. Mar
shall, cover point; S. &. Painter, home;
w. &. Odell, goal, and L. Spear, cover.
Standing room was at premium and
the crowd at times encrOached
on the domain of the players, cauS-
ing cessation of the games which
were marked with the most brilliant
play throughout. Both goals obtained
by the visiting team were won by their
captain, who showed himself a plucky.
expert polo player, and his work was
very encouraging to his men. Steps
have been taken locking to the organ
izatiOn of a polo league in this city, and
communications on the subject to be
addressed to the manager of the Jackson
Street rink. Next Tuesday evening the
championship season will begin with
game between the st. Paul and st.
George clubs, and Thursday evening
the st. Pauls will play the LelandS, who
vanquiShed them last evening, the game
being merely an exhibition, and will
not count in the championship series.
